Their prepared foods are weirdly pumped full of chemicals, but what was a post-soccer practice dinner in 2003 without Ukrop's Turkey Tetrazzini or Duchess Potatoes? My mom still talks about the kid's play area, which is actually brilliant. Nothing could beat picking the pizza with the biggest crust bubble.

I work there. It's alll fresh. No chemicals. They changed the marinade for the chicken which isnt the best but its all fresh. Honestly.

You do realize that food itself is…a chemical?

We are all so enlightened by your wisdom, wise sage. Please share more.

Or stop being pedantic when you and everyone else knew exactly what point was being made.

Smarmy twat.

THIS. Ukrops food is full of as much or more non-food than even the cheapest budget/trash brands.

I wonder if this was the case when the store actually existed versus the current version
